http://candyrant.blogspot.com/2008/07/life-lesson-for-friday.html

I killed a rat with a stick once.". Friday, July 25, 2008. Life Lesson for a Friday. First, let me explain the picture. For several years I made photo Christmas cards featuring the one and only Hankie. This one is my depiction of Hankie as a shepherd.

I killed a rat with a stick once.". Monday, July 31, 2006. Reasons I Do Not Want a Front-Butt *. Perhaps the less sophisticated reader is not familiar with the term "front-butt." Let me explain.

A gut that has gotten so out of hand, so enamored with its own girth, that it has grown in such a way as to almost perfectly mirror the butt you have on the back of your body. It's just up a little higher. There. Now, REASONS I DON'T WANT A FRONT-BUTT:. 3 Your choice of pan...

Life Before Masters: May 2009

http://lifebeforemasters.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html

The sarcastic musings of a graduate assistant teaching and trying to find the path to PhD-dom. Tuesday, May 19, 2009. The End of an Era. So my academic career here in far far west has concluded-today I gave my last final.* In my five years here I got an MA and survived a whole year of professing. I'm not sure which was harder. I must say I'm feeling rather nostalgic. I don't know if it is the massive amounts of wine I consumed over the weekend with Hubby and SMH. Wednesday, May 6, 2009. Since that will t...

The sarcastic musings of a graduate assistant teaching and trying to find the path to PhD-dom. Monday, July 13, 2009. Well it's almost August. that means it's time to quit whatever BS job I've managed to land to actually. Pay the bills and head back to another semester. This year is very exciting as I head east. Particularly since I have landed a pretty sweet TAship. I get to be the only instructor, but don't have the onus of creating daily lesson plans, much less a syllabus. July 13, 2009 at 9:15 PM.

Life Before Masters: December 2008

http://lifebeforemasters.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html

The sarcastic musings of a graduate assistant teaching and trying to find the path to PhD-dom. Sunday, December 28, 2008. 14 hours of travel EACH way! And nothing to show for it! Well, I did see an old friend and got a very nice new purse from the in-laws. But don't know that it was worth the frustration of flying and numerous other petty disagreements. I finally made it back last night (at midnight instead of 6 pm) and ended up with a migraine today and a broken Internet. It's been a helluva month.
